When a such standard will be created I can accommodate the trash-cli command
names to do not conflict with the standard.

The util-linux is standard only on Linux based distribution. Debian which is not
Linux specific doesn't have the util-linux 'rename' which is a command with a
interface so poorly designed that doesn't allows to grows (for example you
cannot add any switches to rename synopsys without broking the existing interface). 

At the present 'trash' is the best (in terms of usability) name I've found for
the command that trashes files. It's important for me provide a usable interface
to facilities of trash-cli package. If someone could suggest me a name that is
good in terms of usability and is not so generic please tell me.
